Everyday foods | Occasional foods

Disclaimer: I initially labeled the article Good foods | Bad foods and then had to catch myself and say that that would be way too reductive. If you have foods you'd like to add to either list, do share with us!

Important note:

As you go about trying to make eating decisions, remember that your choices will be relative. Is X food/beverage good for me compared to Y food/beverage? Is Y food/beverage bad for me compared to Z food/beverage? Moreover, it’s not just about the food/beverage itself. When you eat/drink, the amount, your state of mind, your previous health history, your current workout status are all important parameters as well.

‍

Hope this list serves as a tool in making sound decisions.

Health and hugs,

This write-up is a true hidden gem I re-discovered and it made me so nostalgic! Have you creatively gotten yourself out of situations that need you to overeat and/or drink when you just didn't feel up to it?

Coconut water versus Juice

I wrote this in 2014 - an entire 6 years ago! In the last 6 years, my writing voice has definitely matured and evolved. Phew! But more importantly, in the last 6 years, everyone in the West has caught on to the goodness of coconut water and it has become a mighty wellness trend. The coconut water I recommend is still the same though - the one that comes from the tree and not from a packet/bottle you get at the organic supermarket. P.S. The image at the bottom of the full article is my favourite recent coconut water plug seen and taken from the 'Overheard in NYC' Instagram page.

Client love

It seems as though the thought of doing something professionally which is more "challenging" and "intellectually stimulating" has been gnawing at me for many years now. But all these years, the one thing I have held on to dearly and cherished is how even though on a small scale, my work is making a difference in people’s lives. Here is a little gem I fished out from my Inbox which made me smile ear to ear :)

Pocket Full of Sunshine

I wrote this in 2015 for a magazine and it was only my second time writing a published piece! When I re-read this now, I find it intriguing how while my voice sounds a teeennyy bit immature, all of the concepts are still on point! Happy reading! And feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts.
